  Romulus Cates evidently went to live with his oldest son in Winston, AL after his wife's death. Son William David Cates lived at Peaks Mill, AL; fought for the Confederacy. Romulus died there, and I believe he must be buried there;
 I cannot find him in Clayton Co.

  I saw your post concerning the New Home Cemetery. You are correct about the name being Cates and not Gates. Those Cates folks are my kin, too. I visited that cemetery this past May with my parents and caught the family search bug again. I did photo the tomb but it's pretty hard to read. Getting mossy and brown...
  I was delighted to see the military information about William David Cates. I had not seen that before. Do you know any interesting stories about the family? I only know about his daughter, Georgia who was my g-grandmother.

  Hi Thank you for all of your information! I am not far from you in Tustin, CA. This has been my first day to "play" in a while. My kids are 10 & 8 and keep us on the run these days -- and we were out of state on vacation last week.
  Thank you, Valerie, for taking the time to reply. I really appreciate your sharing your family research. What is your name?
 My name is Judy Spaulding. And I am not a direct descendant of the CATES, though there have been many marriages of the CATES between my ancestors brothers and sisters. I was following the CATEs migration pattern with hopes of FINDING SOME OF MY people. It looks like they were together in both Clayton & Henry County, Georgia....but I'm not sure about the Carolinas.
